Update on ACK ACK ACK #3....

About half way finished with putting together issue #3 of ACK ACK ACK. As it stands now, the photos of the bands that are already placed in this issue are: SPAZZ, DIE MONITOR BATSS, GOGOGO AIRHEART, AND E.T.A.. I have a few more bands to add, obviously. This next week will be spent choosing and scanning images of the yet to be decided bands. I'm thinking of including the Oath, Behead The Prophet NLSL, Red Dons, and/or Limp Wrist. Maybe Life's Halt? Or Paintbox?

For now, here's a couple of GoGoGo Airheart photos that didn't make this issue. And it's not that I think any less of these images. In fact, I really like them. It's just a matter of space... And for the story on these photos; These were shot at the eviction party for Three-One-G on April 13, 2002. A lot of bands played that night. Of the ones I was able to see, I was most impressed by these guys.

ACK ACK ACK #3 underway. Part 2. Some rejects...

Started laying out issue three tonight. Everything is very rough at the moment, obviously. But it's looking like it could come together pretty quick, and come out by December.

This photo and the one below were taking at the Smell on June 28, 2002. I believe this was the only time they toured on the West Coast

Here's a couple E.T.A. photos that didn't make the cut.

ACK ACK ACK #3 is now in the works, and issue #2 is still available.

Okay, this past weekend I started gathering images for issue 3 of Ack Ack Ack. Planning to have it out by the first of 2011, if not by the end of this year. I'll post a line-up of who's in it by December. For now, here's a photo of Scholastic Deth, who are going to be in this issue. This photo is from their final show, which was at Mission Records. Remember when it was a big deal for bands to play their final show?

Also, the fanzine I've been slowly working on should be out by the first of the year as well. And then there's another project I'll announce when there's a bit more work completed.
